Try the following exercises:

Example 1 – For

µ

0

= 150,

σ = 10, x = 158, n = 50, for α = 0.05, test the

hypothesis H

0

:

µ = µ

0

, against the alternative hypothesis, H

1

:

µ ≠ µ

0

.


Press

‚Ù—— @@@OK@@@ to access the hypothesis testing feature in the

calculator. Press

@@@OK@@@ to select option 1. Z-Test: 1 µ.


Enter the following data and press

@@@OK@@@:


You are then asked to select the alternative hypothesis. Select

µ ≠150, and

press

@@OK@@. The result is:

Then, we reject H

0

:

µ = 150, against H

1

:

µ ≠ 150. The test z value is z

0

=

5.656854. The P-value is 1.54

×10

-8

. The critical values of

±z

α

/2

=

±1.959964, corresponding to critical x range of {147.2 152.8}.
